Lee Carbide Factory Crimp Die, 9mm Luger

The Lee Carbide Factory Crimp Die, 9mm Luger (part number 90860), sizes the cartridge case and applies a taper crimp in the same station, so every round chambers with factory-like dependability. It’s built for 9mm Luger reloaders who want a firm, consistent crimp without a separate trim-and-chamfer step, since trim length isn’t critical before running a case through this die. An adjusting screw sets exactly how much crimp is applied, so the same setup repeats round after round.

Key Specifications

• 9mm Luger-specific carbide sizing and crimping so the case is resized and crimped correctly for this cartridge in one die.
• carbide sizing ring eliminates the need for case lube during resizing, unlike a steel die.
• threads into any standard 7/8-inch-14 die station the near-universal press thread, so it fits nearly any single-stage or turret press.
• applies a taper crimp so the case mouth stays straight for reliable feeding and chambering in a semi-auto pistol.
• adjusting screw sets the crimp amount letting you dial in exactly how firm a crimp each load needs.
• trim length is not critical before use skipping the separate trim-and-chamfer step other crimp methods require.
• delivers factory-like chambering dependability for rounds that feed and seat consistently, batch after batch.
• classified as a dedicated Factory Crimp Die built specifically for this crimping step, not general case sizing.
• measures 4.9 in. overall a standard die-body length that fits any standard press die station.
• ships at approximately 0.35 lb a compact steel die that adds little bulk to a reloading bench order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this replace my sizing die? No, run your normal sizing and seating dies first; this Factory Crimp Die is the final station that crimps the 9mm Luger case mouth.
